Take your favorite lasagna recipe and cook in a crock-pot!! Or, you can use this one...

2-3 c. Sauce

**Use sauce that has more liquid in it. If you're using a thicker sauce, add 1/2 cup water to your sauce before layering.**

2 boxes Lasagna noodles

2 c. Cottage cheese

Parmesan cheese

2-3 Zucchini sliced in 1/4 inch slices

Spinach

-Place some sauce on the bottom, then layer uncooked noodles, then cottage cheese, shredded mozzarella and parmesan. Next another noodle layer, then sliced sautéed zucchini, then spinach, then sauce. Next add another noodle layer, cottage cheese and shredded mozzarella and parmesan. Keep layering until you're about 3/4th to the top and finish with sauce, mozzarella and parmesan cheese.

-Cook on high for at least 1 hour, then on low for 3 hours or longer until you're ready to eat.

1. Mix first four ingredients together and place in an 8 x 8 square pan.2. Mix the next four ingredients together in a separate bowl. Cut the butter into the dry mix using your hands or a hand mixer so the mixture is crumbly and the butter is in pea-sized pieces.3. Add the 1/4 cup milk and mix together with a wooden spoon. Drop the batter on top of the plum mixture in the 8 x 8 square pan.4. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes*.

*Since plums are in season during the summer, you can consider using the toaster oven for this recipe. It is much more efficient and it doesn't heat up the house. However, consider adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.

Salutations

Planning and making good food can be a drag sometimes, but if you try making new things, it can be like unearthing a pair of hardly-worn, quality shoes at a thrift store for $5. A discovery to be sure.
